Jifeng Hotel (Heihe Central Commercial Pedestrian Street)

Great location. This hotel close to shops and restaurants. The breakfast is the same selection every day. I booked a room with a river view. The window faces the direction where the river is, but you cannot see the river at all. You see a building. The window is also dirty. The room size is a bit small. I have a large suitcase and there is only one area where I can open it. I am a solo traveler so this is not a big problem. But 2+ people might have a problem with the room size. I suggest getting a bigger room. The room stays warm during the day even if the AC is not on and it is ideal after coming from the cold outside. I like that the room has a huge mirror. Housekeeping still knocks on my door even when I turn on the “Do not disturb”. I have to work at night so I sleep during the afternoon and they always interrupt my sleep. I don’t like it. The front desk staff are helpful even if there are difficulties communicating in English. They tried their best. I think the some of the staff can speak some Russian. Overall this is a cheap hotel with breakfast and the location gives it great value. Note that they allow smoking in the lobby and hallways.
